T
he 4th Annual Bourbon at the
Bay, sponsored by Smileology,
was held on November 17 at
Regatta Bay Golf & Yacht Club.
Almost 200 people enjoyed bourbon,
scotch and champagne tastings all to
support the good work of the Destin
Chamber.
Timber Creek Distillery was on hand
with some special local spirits, Kilwins-
Destin Commons offered their delicious
bourbon infused fudge, and Regatta Bay,
as always, did a fantastic job as host
and with the wonderful food. The Cigar
Factory Social Club was also there with
hand rolled cigars out on the deck.
The silent auction was a huge success
offering everything from an FSU Tiki
Table to a six-night stay in Costa Rica.
Shane Moody, CEO & President of the
Destin Chamber of Commerce, offered,
“This event gets bigger every year. It is
one of the most talked about signature
events of the year. It’s a great kick-off for
the holiday season.”
